+Crontab:
+========
+
+a crontab is a system that automate tasks for you, at a given moment.
+
+Here are the tasks to be used to run the **Trigger Happy** engine automatically
+
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    # trigger happy
+    20,40 * * * * . /home/trigger-happy/bin/recycle
+    10,25,41,55 * * * * . /home/trigger-happy/bin/read
+    */15 * * * * . /home/trigger-happy/bin/publish
+
+
+The first line is used to recycle the data, that have not been published, for example, because of reaching a rate limit.
+When this behavior occurs, the data stay in the cache, to be used at the next loop
+
+content of the **recycle** command
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    . /home/trigger-happy/bin/activate && cd /home/trigger-happy/th/ && python manage.py recycle
+
+
+content of the **read** command
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    . /home/trigger-happy/bin/activate && cd /home/trigger-happy/th/ && python manage.py read
+
+
+content of the **publish** command
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    . /home/trigger-happy/bin/activate && cd /home/trigger-happy/th/ && python manage.py publish
+
+You may notice the folder `/home/trigger-happy/th/` in each command, this is a virtualenv given for the example
+
+the periodicity of the execution, is set like this, to avoid to make 2 tasks run in same time, and also, to avoid to reach often the rate limitation of Twitter and others sensitives services
